The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1887-07-07

to do the work On receipt OF the forfeit
money, which was voluntarily paid, Chlet
Signal Officer Greedy forwarded 1t to the
Secretary of War asking for Instructions
rs to the disposition of the money, stating
to the Secretary that 1.-THE Chief Signal
Officer, in his long service in the army, has
never before known of case where the
bond was paid without suit being brought
to enforce the penalty" MIR. Minis came OF
good, honest stock, and he was, no doubt,
much surprised and gratified to find That
the government appreciates such citizen as
he is.
Sanford Journal. Some weeks ago the
Agricultural Department at Washington
sent us "a number of small packages Of teo-
sinte seed for distribution among our
readers. Mentioning the fact that we had
the seed for the purpose indicated, very
soon we had applications that would nave
exhausted ten times the supply furnished
us. Since then we had heard nothing of re
suits until yesterday, when Mr. G. II. Letter
brought in and placed on the front
of our office, for general observation,
a shock of the richest most succulent green
forage we have ever seen. Hundreds OF the
throng in our city stopped to admire and in
quire what it was, and without exception
the desire expressed was for some OF the
seed. The tallest spires of the shock reached
a height of seven feet and the estimated
weight, it being about ten inches in diane
ter, was forty-five pounds. Surely teosinte
will prove invaluable to our country, where
the cost of food for stock is one of our most
serious drawbacks

Remarkable Indian Relics.

From the Albany (Ga.) Ne,cs aud Advertiser.
The attention of Walter Strum, superin-
tendent on F. F. Putney's place at Hard
away, Ca, was attracted some days since to
two remarkable stones turned over by the
pillow in the watermelon patch He picked
them up and discovered them TO be two re-
markable relics of the occupation of the
aborigines of this section. They were long
skillfully made spear heads of the most won
derful workmanship, considering the rude
implements of the Indians, that we have
ever seen. Nothing in the Smithsonian In
stitute surpasses them in interest to the
antiquarian or anthropologist.
One of the spear heads is ~ inches long,
2L inches wide and at its centre 15-inch
thick reduced as a Roman short sword to
two sharp edges. The other is only 10
inches long, but in other respects similar in
shape and size to the short swords of the
Romans
Considering the facilities the Indians pos
sesSed for fashioning such formidable
weapons they are wonderfully made, and
must represent months and perhaps years of
tedious labor, and were, doubtless, of price
less value to their poSseSsor.
The flint rock, of which they are made,
abOunds on the banks of our river, from
which fact the white man has rechriStened
the Indian ThronateeSka the Flint. There
are many evidences that on its banks in this
section were located the Indian workshops
in which the weapons of warfare as well as
their implements for domestic uses were
fashioned. Rudely-shaped- in the
making-and perfectly made arrow and
spear heads are still to be found along the
banks of the Flint, and the innumerable
chips of hard flint rock indicate plainly their
origin
The Indians used the large spearheads
either for offensive operations against their
enemies or in the chase and also for domestic
purposes in cutting meats.
AS was the custom with the Indians the
deft hand that fashioned and the strong arm
that welded these spearheads must have
been buried with them, and it is not i'm
probable that the bones of some warrior,
famous in his day and generation, lie moul-
dering in the earth near where they were
found

ON THE QUIET.
But Close Call Just the Same-The
Affair Amicably Settled.
From the Griffin (Ga.) Sun.

From the Griffin (Ga.) Sun.
The Sun is in possession of the facts of a
sensation which came near terminating in
a tragedy.
The affair is not known generally, and in
fact not over half a dozen people are aware
that popular young gentleman of this
place, came near losing his life at the hands
of gentleman who lives i'll a neighboring
city.
We are pledged not to mention the names
of the parties in the affair, but the circum-
stances as related are as follows:
Monday night the Griffin gentleman, in
company with friend, was walking down
one of our main streets when they en-
countered a gentleman whom they both
knew, but a resident of another place. The
three gentlemen engaged in pleasant con-
versation for a few moments, when popu-
lar young ladys name of this place was
mentioned, of whom the gentleman
from a distance spoke i'll rather de-
rogatory terms. One of the young mon was
special friend of the lady i'll question, and
demonstrated with the stranger. He reiter-
ated his former statement and emphasized it
with the remark that if he, the Griffin man,
felt inclined TO take the lady part he would
be pleased to serve him.
The Griffin gentleman said: You have
made remarks that are both uukind and I'M
man" This seemed to anger the other party
beyond control, for jerking out his pistol,
he fired two shots in rapid succession, and
then turning, ran down tho street short
distance. The party fired at dropped to the
ground at the second shot us though NOR
tally wounded, while his shirt
front became quickly dyed with
blood that seemed TO come from his lett
breast. The third party, who up to this
time remained inactive, now took a hand in
the affair and gently raising his friend TO a
sitting posture endeavored 20 find out the
extent of his injuries. The wounded man
in moments OF extreme excitement is sub
ject TO fainting spells, and was in
this semi-conscious state when spoken
TO by his friend. AT length he re-
gained full consciousness when he made a
full examination Of his wound. Ii was
found that the bah had gone just between
the left breast and arm, puncturing the skin
of the latter member considerably. Had
the ball gone an inch to the left death
would have been instantaneous Our in
formant tells us that when the stranger
saw what he had done he became almost
frantic with grief and rendered every posi-
BILE assistance. The gentlemans grief was
genuine, for he offered every apology for
the language he had used toward the young
lady, and for his cowardly action in shoot
ing an unarmed man and that without the
slightest provocation This was how the
affair was amicably settled and kept from
the public.
The wounded gentleman was out as usual
yesterday, and no one save the parties i'm
Incdiately concerned are aware of the CLOSE
calf' he had the night before
